JUDGE SMITH UPON COL. MoOLBI,
LANDS CRITICISM.

EDITOR 1NTELLIG unconstitutional
I feel compelled to take pnblic notice
of the communication from Col,
McClelland, which appeared in the
Register of this week, yet it is with
great regret that | do SO. And that
regret is occasiomed more by the refec-
ton that the circumstances which
make it imperative upon me to answer,
are statements from a tellow-servant
aud officer of the same people, which
are calculated to place the county court
in a very false light, and to disturb
the harmony which. ought to exist
among sll of the county officers in
order that the best results may accrue
to The people from their services. The
aause Of any disturbance that may
! crise in relation to the matters in CUES,
ton does not come from q simple diff
ference of opinion between the county
court and the treasurer as to the iegsi-
ity of the two warrants drawn Oh the
treasurer to pay judgments against the
county. Such a difference might exist

This seems to be an age of 'combines,'

Of late the big "trusts" are absorbing

Sedalia Democrat: 1.-The recent
failure of two barbed wire m%anufacto-
ries being inquired into shows a curious
condition of things. The failure was
ascribed to the action of the interstate
commerce law, but as the assets are
only 5000 900 while the liabilities are
800 900 it is thought by the creditors
that something else beside the law has
had to do with the failures" After-a-
while il a man has a boil on the end of
his nose he will attribute it to the in
terstate commerce act.

Ewing we elsewhere print an article
from his pen in explanation of his con-

vention at Odessa. The Intelligencer
has made no comment upon the pro-
ceedings of the Odessa convention,
and the apparent disagreement which
arose, as we were not present at its

to interfere in the dispute, but, as an
